Going to Spain (Murcia) for my hols this weekend, everytime I look at the weather it says rain... is this true or have the BBC got it wrong????

I live in south-west France and it has been raining here non-stop since Saturday. It's all coming up from Spain and the Med. Sorry about that, but it can't last forever. At least it's not cold...

Everytime ive been over this year bar January it has rained all the time, however this time last year was quite bad for flooding in that area IIRC, I have booked my next trip to the above area from June 22ndish Should hopefully be improved by then.

Of all the Websites for weather ive used the BBC is pretty accurate it gives a %age of rain in a certain area at times you need to know

Sometimes just to cheer me up if BBC says rain rain rain, Ill look at another site that says Sun Sun Sun, even though I know its inaccurate just to cheer me up.

Lately all my trips have only been 2/3/4 day jobs so usually rains all through and back home its sunny again, So in the summer I try to make longer trips so you get the rain but also 10 days + of pure sun.

I hope it works out for you, you can only give 48 hours on the BBC as a proper forecast, 5 days forward is still too much to predict with any certainty, so good luck mate.

I thought that it was only me that searched all weather websites until I find one that says sunshine!!!

We went to Calpe last April and it rained.. thought further south, later in year we would be fine, but looks like the rain coat is coming with us again!

Its been lousy wet weather here for nearly 3 weeks!!

The good news is I am on the other side of Spain to Murcia!

The weather is not too special at the moment

It's been great here in Chiclana, I have been in the pool everyday and what rain we have had has been during the night and just one day Monday of last week

Go on......rub it in why dont you!!

I am even considering putting the bloody heating on!!!

I do a daily weather report for this area elsewhere and since January I think I have only added a weeks rain if that, usual daily report is sun and blue skies, same today, and yesterday and the day before


look at this weather web site, go to the province then the place you are going to, it gives you 7 days forecast.

Well, it's alright, not fabulous. My kids are still in their school jumpers and it's nearly June. Plus the school play has been rained off this week!

Fraid it is true at the moment Burkins. As well as the bbc, check out http://tiempo.meteored.com/prediccio...-1-Espana.html for a pretty reliable picture and forecast on what is going on. We had more thunderstorms last night and it was a tad chilly for end of May but at least the days are warmer.

we have had quite a lot of rain, but it's usually only for an hour or so, then the sun comes out, the floods dry up and it's back to normal. You don't get the grey drizzly days like the UK, rain in Spain doesn't stay mainly on the plain, but when you do get it it comes down in buckets full.

Bright sunshine and clear skies here at the moment, 10.30 and 21 degrees

I've got a full load of washing in and another waiting ...... and the clear blue sky has become very overcast and threatening May as well be in England for the rain we've been getting
